  • Johns Hopkins University Style Guide Contents Introduction Names
    JHU Office of Communications Style Guide page 1 Johns Hopkins University Style Guide Contents • Introduction • Names: Johns Hopkins University and its divisions • Style guidelines Introduction These guidelines were compiled by editors in the Office of Communications to encourage consistency and correct usage of terms across the many publications produced by JHU offices. The guidelines draw from The Associated Press Stylebook 2019 and the 17th edition of The Chicago Manual of Style. Written from a Johns Hopkins point of view, the guidelines are intended to complement AP and CMOS and, when those sources disagree, to choose between them. For points not addressed in the university guidelines, AP is the preferred source. For points not listed in AP, use the dictionary it recommends: Webster’s New World College Dictionary. When the dictionary gives two spellings, use the first one; when the dictionary and AP give different spellings, use AP’s. A number of individual JHU publications have their own style sheets, more detailed and directed to handling specialized content. Johns Hopkins Medicine, for example, has posted its Branding and Use of Name Toolkit http://brand.hopkinsmedicine.org/gui/content.asp. The guidelines below will supplement those already existing and will contribute to the effort to bring overall consistency to university publications. Names: Johns Hopkins University and its divisions The Johns Hopkins University/The Johns Hopkins Hospital: The preferred shortened name for Johns Hopkins University is Johns Hopkins, not Hopkins. The acronym JHU can be used as a shortened form in informal or internal communications and to avoid repetition of the Hopkins name.

  • Freshman Fellows: Implementing and Assessing a First-Year Primary-Source Research Program
    Library Impact Practice Brief Freshman Fellows: Implementing and Assessing a First-Year Primary-Source Research Program Research Team Members: Margaret Burri, Joshua Everett, Heidi Herr, and Jessica Keyes Sheridan Libraries, Johns H opkins Univ ersity July 15, 2021 This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License. Association of Research Libraries 21 Dupont Circle NW, Suite 800, Washington, DC 20036 (202) 296-2296 | ARL.org Issue Libraries spend significant time and money collecting and making Special Collections materials available to researchers. A critical piece of this work is teaching students how to engage with rare and unique materials to answer research questions and make new contributions to knowledge. Five years ago, to give scholars starting their college journey the chance to conduct original research, the Sheridan Libraries at Johns Hopkins University established a Freshman Fellows (FF) program1 that partners first-year students with their own curatorial mentor for a one-year research project. This program graduated its first cohort of four fellows in spring 2020, and the research team designed an assessment project to see how this experience impacted the fellows’ studies and co-curricular activities at Johns Hopkins, as well as the mentors’ approach to the program and their larger work in Special Collections. Additionally, the team realized that the program would benefit from a structured way to review the fellows’ final projects, so we added the development of an assessment rubric (Appendix 4). A former colleague, Steph Gamble, suggested mapping various pedagogical measures, including the Association of College & Research Libraries (ACRL) Framework for Information Literacy for Higher Education,2 into a rubric to be used to evaluate the work.

Reviews Exhibition Review: Mount Vernon: Baltimore’s Historic LGBT Neighborhood By Amanda Castro and Blanca Garcia-Barron Before John Travolta played Edna Turnblad in the 2007 remake of John Waters’ Hairspray (1988), the actress known as Divine played the famous role first. Divine, born Harris Glen Milstead, had been John Waters’ muse for twenty years prior to his most famous and successful film, Hairspray, in 1988. As a filmmaker, Waters has had a reputation for making underground satirical films set in the Baltimore, Maryland area that have often been deemed obscene. In the early 1960s and 1970s, Divine played many of the titular roles in films like Pink Flamingos, Female Trouble, and Polyester. Central themes of the films were fetishes, ennui in suburbia, and Baltimore. Deconstructed, Waters’ films reflected an exaggerated portrayal of the repressive attitudes toward homosexuality and sex in 1950s America.

  • GUNSMOKE TV CAST and DETAILS Premiered
    GUNSMOKE TV CAST AND DETAILS Premiered: September 10, 1955, on CBS Rating: TV-PG Premise: This landmark adult Western centered on Marshal Matt Dillon of Dodge City. John Wayne turned down the lead, suggesting James Arness (who remained for its entire run). Originating on radio (with William Conrad as Dillon), it moved to TV in September 1955. Its popularity spawned a number of copycats, but none would enjoy the longevity (and few the consistent quality) of this classic. Airing for 20 years, it's TV's longest running prime-time drama (a record that `Law & Order' is currently chasing). Gunsmoke Cast • James Arness : Marshal Matt Dillon • Milburn Stone : Dr. Galen `Doc' Adams • Amanda Blake : Kitty Russell • Dennis Weaver : Chester Goode • Ken Curtis : Festus Haggen • Burt Reynolds : Quint Asper • James Nusser : Louie Pheeters • Charles Seel : Barney Danches • Howard Culver : Howie Culver • Tom Brown : Ed O'Connor • John Harper : Percy Crump • Dabbs Greer : Mr. Jonus • George Selk : Moss Grimmick • Hank Patterson : Hank Miller • Glenn Strange : Sam • Sarah Selby : Ma Smalley • Ted Jordan : Nathan Burke • Roger Ewing : Clayton Thaddeus `Thad' Greenwood • Roy Roberts : Mr. Bodkin • Woody Chamblis : Mr. Lathrop • Buck Taylor : Newly O'Brien • Charles Wagenheim : Halligan • Pat Hingle : Dr. John Chapman • Fran Ryan : Miss Hannah Gunsmoke Credits • Sam Peckinpah : Screenwriter Gunsmoke Directors • Harry Horner : Director Gunsmoke Guest Cast • Aaron Saxon : Basset • Aaron Spelling : Weed Pindle • Abraham Sofaer : Harvey Easter • Adam West : Hall
